| ISLAMIC ART
AND CALLIGRAPHY
I am interested to promote
and exhibit Islamic art and calligraphy in South-East Asia.
I am based in Singapore and would like to introduce the
richness of Islamic art to this region. The project is
purely of my own self interest. Painters and calligraphers
from the Arab world are welcome to contact me.

| RECIPE
FOR STUFFED VINE LEAVES
My
favorite recipe for stuffed grape leaves is the one from
the cookbook "From the Land of Figs and Olives". I
have moved recently and the book is now in storage; I don't
want to buy it again but would like to have the recipe. If
someone has it and could forward it to me I would be very
grateful (as would be the rest of my family!).

| ARAB WOMEN
I am a student at an
American university. Presently I am enrolled in a
Cross-Cultural Communications class that is dedicated to
understanding various cultures in the US. I am required to
research cultures for a project and I have chosen to study
"Arab Women". I was looking to find someone who is
a "woman" and is "Arab" so that I may
interview them. If you have any leads or information on this
subject it would be greatly appreciated.

| ZAYDI
FIQH
I would like to
learn Zaydi fiqh. For that I would like to get in touch with
a Zaydi brother. If anyone could provide an e-mail address
of a Zaydi with whom I can communicate in English I would
appreciate it greatly.

| OTTOMAN COIN
I recently acquired a coin
and I am told by the Coin Department at the British Museum
that it is an Ottoman 20 paras coin of Abdul Aziz dating
between 1861 and 1876 AD. I would be grateful if anyone
could direct me to where I may find out more information
about this ruler. I am not a coin collector. It came into my
possession from among my late father's effects and I believe
that he would have acquired it during his war service in
Egypt. Any information would be most appreciated.

| ARABIC
LITERATURE
Are there any good reference
books or other sources on Arabic literature on the net? I am
looking for historical information on the writer Mousthafa
Lutfi al-Manfaluthy and comment of his book "majdulin".
I am trying to write a thesis about the book so I need any
reference about it and its writer.

| NEW
MAGAZINE
We are finalizing plans to
produce a monthly magazine titled News of Arabs in Israel.
The magazine will bring to the world in English language the
issues and problems facing the Arab minority inside Israel.
We are in need for funding from Arab and international
institutions and individuals, and we are also interested in
identifying potential subscribers. Also we would like to
have an intern or two working for us. Please assist this
important cause, and make it come true.
